Our Values we embrace at Flourish Asia and the Centre for Stress Management with counselling, coaching, training and consulting guide us in our daily processes and goals to ensure a seamless experience of caring and growth for our clients, especially in times of COVID-19 and post COVID-19. Our COVID-19 Services are delivered with genuine compassion and careful attention as our co-founders have also experienced COVID-19 in their personal and professional lives. In short, we can sincerely and deeply empathize with the experiences our communities and clients are having and or have experienced with COVID-19.
Our Social Responsibility ethos is centred around the value of community and affordability so clients can with the least amount of obstacles seek the care that restores and rejuvinates their wellness. We understand that the frustrations, uncertainty and fears our clients and the community experiences during COVID-19 should not be part of their wellness journey with our practitioners. Thus, when an inquiry is made regarding counselling support for COVID-19, we ensure the service provided increases knowledge on self-care, enhances psychological and physical comfort, and provides a client-specific well-being program for health restoration.
Our Mission Statement states: "From the beginning, our mission has been to make mental health services affordable and accessible for our community," especially in times of a long-term community epidemic. Today the world is turning more towards neuroscience to improve the quality of life, and at Flourish Asia and the Centre for Stress Management we continually integrate lifestyle medicine and neuroscience best practices to enhance our four core services for COVID-19: counselling, coaching, consulting and training. We consider it a privilege and honour when our clients seek services from us, and as our understanding of wellness continues to evolve, we shall also continually strive to go from great to better with our services during and after COVID-19.
| Our Services | Description |
|---|---|
| Counselling | We provide in-person and online counselling for those who are currently experiencing COVID-19 and for those who have recovered. Our counselling focus is on sleep, stress management, restoration counselling, relationship counselling and re-entering the home, school, traveling and work worlds. |
| Referrals | Our combined 55 years experience in healthcare and the medical communities in Asia, Europe, North America, Australia and New Zealand afford our clients a seamless, expedient and several local and international options for medical care (physical and mental) when required. |
| Workshops | We design and deliver organization workshops on COVID-19 wellness topics that takes away the "guessing game" on self care, workplace practices, teambuilding, employee onboarding, and policies and procedures to ensure a safe and productive workplace and home. |
| Human Resources | Our long standing experience in working with C-Suite leadership, management and human resource leaders with workplace wellness provides the community legal and healthcare consultations and resources to reduce workplace conflicts, disruptions in service and legal risks. |
| Schools | Centre for Stress Management and Flourish Asia since 2020 have been providing the school communities (teachers, parents, students and PTA's) in Hong Kong and elsewhere wellness workshops online and in-person on understanding and managing COVID-19 concerns. |
| Online Forums | We provide a supportive and caring presence to local and international online forums (including telemedicine) to support those in quarantine with COVID-19 and those in recovery post quarantine, both those who had Covid as well as their family members and work colleagues. |
Our COVID-19 Care is a service we provide our community and clients from both a personal and professional perspective. With regards to the personal perspective, our co-founders have both tested positive with COVID-19 that impacted their work and personal lives, to include being quarantined at the Hong Kong facility Penny Bay and as well having friends and family members hospitalized for urgent care. Concurrently, we have also experienced being a "close contact" that caused quarantine, isolation, testing and eventual discharge from a quarantine facility and or home quarantine. Regarding our professional experience, with our backgrounds in psychology, neuroscience, lifestyle medicine and infectious diseases, our commitment to remaining current with evidence-based research and clinical practices with vaccinations, medication, COVID-19 recovery, and "long haulers" (those with long-term chronic post COVID-19 recovery symptoms) healthcare challenges are central to our COVID-19 Care.
The fastest way is the best way and the best way is one step at a time. Thus, we do small things one step at a time with unconditional care. Dr Mark
